Hello! Finally back in "present voice" here! Yay! It feels like AGES ago since I've written a real time post. It's hard to believe, but we've been home from Hawaii for almost 2 weeks already. Plus a 2 week trip... means it's just about a full month since we left for vacation! Mind.blown. So, what… Continue reading Some real time updates!
On Sunday I ran to T.J.Maxx looking for a new little bralette for sleeping in, because a very cute, curly haired friend chewed the strap off of my old but beloved one. (My fault for leaving it on the floor... he really doesn't chew on things anymore, except socks and/or undergarments of any kind are… Continue reading Overheard in the fitting room + a few packing confessions
Full rainbow view from soccer parking lot on Wednesday night 😍 Whew, this week has felt chaotic. I had a dentist appt Monday, meetings all morning Wednesday + a haircut in the afternoon, another quick appointment Thursday... My work days have felt all over the place. The evenings have not been any calmer. I am… Continue reading Friday misc./ busy week/ end of freshman year!
1- Ethan's tennis banquet Last night we attended Ethan's end-of-season tennis banquet at school. It was at 5:30 p.m. and way across town (for me anyway, from home...). Ivan met us there from work. Ethan drove me, despite being essentially "rush hour" on the "busy/ scary interstate route" (which is actually just his normal route… Continue reading Friday 5: Misc
May 15th today! Halfway point through May. SO, how's it going? Overall, not as bad as I thought, really. We have had to do a fair amount of picking and choosing/ skipping things, which in some ways I suppose is unfortunate, but also has helped wield down the number of things from this list. I… Continue reading How the month is going
Mish mash post here today of a few random things... #1: I finally ordered and received my printed Blog Book from our Costa Rica trip! I had this one made with my blog post recaps after our New England trip in 2021: from intorealpages.com It turned out great, and ever since I have wanted to… Continue reading Blog book, shopping, Nutella…
Just did a little audit of the May calendar... we're in the thick of it now! To me things REALLY gear up when there start to be a bunch of special weeknight events. This sets May apart from the rest of the year, I think. The numbers Tennis matches= 4 (including one full day Conference… Continue reading May by the numbers/photos
I didn't sleep great last night; it started off with over an hour awake where I could NOT stop coughing from 11 pm- midnight, during which I protested out loud in frustration "Come ON!" several times to my dark bedroom, sleeping husband and dog. It finally subsided, but I awoke today with a still very… Continue reading Moving in the right direction…
Coming at you from Sick Day #2 of the week over here (well, more like Sick Day #5, technically, but I mean Sick Day #2 off of work). I started getting a sore throat on Friday but didn't think too much of it really. I had several long phone calls on Thursday and I sat… Continue reading Sick edition
As I suspected and forecasted, this is a BUSY season for us right now. Side note- It annoys me that I just said that. Because I kind of feel like I, or the collective "we", have all taken to calling every season "busy". Have you noticed that? This current season (April-May) is the busy spring… Continue reading “Busy seasons” + good stuff list
GRATEFUL KAE
